Pure substance
Something that has a constant composition
Cannot be separated into other kinds of matter by PHYSICAL processes
Elements
Cannot be chemically decomposed into simpler substances
Compound
Can be broken down into elements by chemical processes
2 or more elements chemically combined
Mixture
Combination of at least 2 substances that can be separated by physical methods into different substances
Homogenous mixture
Uniform in macroscopic level, no amount of magnification can reveal components, constant properties
Kelvin conversion
+273.15
Dalton’s Atomic Theory
- All matter is composed of solid, indivisible particles called atoms. (NT)
- Atoms of a particular element are identical.(T)
- Atoms of one element differ from atoms of another. (T)
- Atoms of different elements combine in numerical proportions to form compounds.
- In chem. reaction, matter is neither created or destroyed, or changed into atoms of another element.
Cathode Ray Tube Experiment
- Sir JJ Thomson (Plum Pudding Model)
- had positively charged platform cathode
- Deduced nucleus was positively charged because most particles passed through foil without deflection.
- Most alpha particles were not deflected or slightly deflected. Others largely deflected.
- Proposed: Most of mass with electrons occupying space
- Learned particles are fundamental constituents of matter
- PARTICLES WERE NEGATIVELY CHARGED
Charge/Mass Ratio
JJ Thomson determined the angle at which the particles deflected
atomic weight
mass of one atom of an element (mass spectrometer)
